Setting up
your HD TV
Got an HD TV? Then our installers will
connect you so you can start watching
HD shows and movies straight away.
Getting the right connection lead
If we connect your V HD Box to a
standard TV, but you decide to switch
to a new HD TV later, there's nothing
to worry about. All you need is an HD
connection lead.
1. Check your TV manual – you'll
need either an HDMI or DVI
connection lead.
2. Most new TVs use an HDMI lead.
If yours does, you can buy one from
us by calling the number at the back
of this guide.
3. If your TV needs a DVI lead, you
can easily pick one up at any
electrical shop.
Connecting your HD TV
Once you've got the right lead, just follow
these steps to get connected.
1. Unplug your V HD Box and TV at the
mains socket.
2. Connect the V HD Box to the TV
using your new HD lead and switch
everything back on. Change your TV's
AV input to the HDMI input that you
just plugged the lead into, connecting
your V HD Box to your TV.
3. When the V HD Box displays the
words 'Live TV' on the front panel,
press on your remote.
4. Choose Settings from the menu, then
Change Display & Audio Settings.
5. Select TV display format and choose
HiDef HDMI.
6. Select V HD Box HiDef output
setting. We show our programmes in
1080, but you may want to try 720 to
see what looks best on your TV.
